Rodzinne piesze wycieczki w Południowym Tyrolu

Walking time: about 2.5 hours

Starting point: Town Hall Square. Via Schneckenthaler Straße to St. Anna Nursing Home. Immediately after, turn left following the sign "Hiking Trail Kastelaz" up to the forest road. This leads first slightly uphill and then gently downhill through sparse mixed forest for 3 km to the neighboring village of Kurtatsch. In 2024, 5 new play stations for children were built. Right at the beginning of the hiking trail, children can now whizz down a rapid slide. A few steps ahead, a wooden snake invites balancing. Followed by a swing, a climbing igloo, and at the rest area "Bödala," a cable car. Right at the first houses of Kurtatsch, we reach via the less traveled panoramic road above the Wine Road via Rungg back to Tramin. (Opportunities to stop for food in Kurtatsch and at the Hofschank zur Pergola in Rungg, closed on Wednesdays).

Along the way you can find information panels about the history and culture of qine, as well as giant-size items used in winegrowing: a "Reber" (vine knife), a "Moster" (pounder) and a "Pazeide", an ancient wine and measuring vessel on the village square.

This, a little bit challenging, itinerary starts at the bridge next to the bar Verena on the road direction Würzjoch. We hike upwards on the path through the meadows along the brook Putzerbach, we pass the "Balbein Platzl" with a little pond, picnic-table and panorama lounger. Following the path through the woods, crossing the road to Flitt, we walk uphill to Flitt (1337 m). Here we can take a break and visit the idyllic chapel. The meadows of Flitt offer a beautiful view of the valley with the Peitlerkofel in the background. The path downwards, which is initially steep and its starting point is located at the farm Wurzerhof, leads us to the start of the toboggan run and then to the farm Örtlhof. From here we follow the path through the woods until we arrive at the farm Pekulerhof. Finally we walk on the street until the starting point at the Bar Verena.

Easy hike for the whole family on scenic mountain trails. The highlight of the entire route is a visit to the Christomannos Monument -a bronze eagle, which was built in honor of the tourism pioneer Theodor Christomannos. From there you have a wonderful view over the Val di Fassa and the Val d'Ega as far as the Latemar group.

The circular hike from Lake Carezza to Franzin Alm combines breathtaking landscapes, historical sites, and local culinary delights. Passing through dense forests with stunning views of the Catinaccio, the trail leads to Franzin Alm. A special highlight is the Kaiserstein, a large rock named after Empress Elisabeth "Sissi," who once visited this place.

On narrow but beautiful hiking trails you reach the mountain cinema at the foot of the Rosengarten. The phenomenal view of countless mountain peaks such as Latemar, Schwarzhorn | Corno Nero, Weißhorn | Corno Bianco, Ortler | Ortles, Stubai and Zillertal Alps, Tschafon | Monte Ciavone and Schlern | Sciliar, compensates for the steep ascent.

The Wine Trail ties in with Schenna’s centuries-old tradition of winegrowing. More than 20 stations along the way tell of the work in the vineyard, share knowledge, report on historic events and reveal curious facts about the noble grape juice. Over a distance of 5.3 km, the trail leads, sometimes steeply, sometimes in leisurely fashion, through the sun-kissed terroir and in the process provides fabulous views of Schenna Castle and the spa town of Merano. The Wine Trail can be completed in a good hour and a half. However, the many attractions along the way – such as a flavour station – encourage walkers to take a little more time. Not least so that they can pay a visit to the wine cellars and farm shops, which are practically right by the trail.

Beautiful walk along the river (ex bike route), starting from Hotel Brandl, to the playground in Versciaco/Vierschach.

The hike along Wiesenweg is a pleasant circular route that takes in Schenna’s castles and farms and offers some lovely scenic viewing points where you can stop along the way. Absolutely recommended when the apple blossom is in flower in spring.

A real adventure for the whole family awaits you on this exciting hike in the Pflersch Valley! You start at the car park in St. Anton and follow the asphalt footpath to the Hotel Feuerstein. Here, turn right over a bridge and continue along a narrow forest path that winds gently uphill. Passing the picturesque farms of Außerstein, you reach the impressive waterfall trail, which takes you to four spectacular waterfalls - Trommelbachfall, Gansörbachfall, Mesnerbachfälle and Koggrabenfall. The sound of the water and the rich nature create a magical atmosphere!

Once you arrive at the ‘Hölle’ car park (1400 m), a special viewpoint with a view of the famous ‘Hölle’ waterfall awaits you. There's plenty for little adventurers to discover here! If you still haven't had enough, you can continue the hike and climb up to the Furtalm (1690 m), formerly known as the Ochsenalm, in around an hour. A perfect destination for a short break in the middle of the unspoilt mountain landscape.

The way back then takes you either along the same route back to St. Anton or via trail no. 6. An unforgettable experience for the whole family, combining nature and adventure!
